President Obama apologizes to Karzai for Quran burnings

President Obama has sent a personal apology to Afghan President Hamid Karzai for an incident in which U.S. military personnel burned Qurans and other Islamic material at Bagram air base, the White House said. The incident has sparked two days of unrest and violence. 

The apology came in a letter to Karzai that National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor said follows a phone call the two presidents had on Monday. The letter -- which Ambassador Ryan Crocker delivered today -- continues a "discussion on a range of issues related to our long-term partnership," Vietor said.

And, Vietor said, the president "expressed our regret and apologies over the incident in which religious materials were unintentionally mishandled at Bagram Airbase."

2 Timothy 3:12-17

12Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.

13But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.

14But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;

15And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

16All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

17That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

Miss led Afghans has threatened to kill and take measures against Christians sounds like bullying bad boys. That their Mother and Father never showed them right from wrong. All the good on Earth want peace not war. If you cannot have your way you are going to hurt someone this sounds like a mad men to most of the world.

If someone really cares for them give them a Bible with red letter print. That is a red letter edition words that were spoken by are Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. With a Pray for them maybe they will be saved, and not go to hell.

Remember for over a Thousand years you have taken you life at risk from the wicked for carrying a Bible.
They have burned the Bible in public many times they have cut off the head of anyone carrying one many a times. They have bombed many a Christian Church, Killing many.

The Persecution of Christiana in the Middle East has gone on for over two thousand years.

The Leaders of many Christian groups have criticizes Muslim leaders and Leaders of governments for failing to intervene after series of deadly attacks on Christians and their Churches in many countries around the World, each Christmas. Killing at least 35 Christmas day Church, Nigerian 2011. Killing over 20 New Year's Eve mass Egypt 2011. 50 killed Christians at a Catholic Cathedral Baghdad 2010. Over 200 injured Imbaba region by Cairo 2011. The list goes on and on and has for many years now.

How many Muslim Churches have been attacked or bombed while they are in there church by Christians ? Answer 0

The World wants Peace not more wars.

If you think the wicked want peace read this then go look at some of their web sites!
There is a video on official Hamas TV that calls for Allah to all kill Jews, Christians, Communists and any of their supporters they can find. This video asks Allah to "count them and kill them to the last one, and don't leave even one."

Hamas TV . You will have Air mail incoming very soon. It is Very Sad you do not want peace and ask for WAR.

May our Lord Jesus Christ and GOD the Father that is in Heaven,
Guide and Watch over us.

In this time of TRIBULATION, Strengthen your Faith, and encourage
all to Pray for their souls. The strong in the word of our Lord will Now
Help the World and be the disciples of our Lord's Word.
